Scientists state that the Sun is a gigantic atomic furnace radiating a tremendous amount of heat to the satellite planets each second. The temperature at its surface is said to be thousands of degrees and the internal temperature is supposedly in the millions of degrees. However, it is unexplainable how super-heated gases can act magnetically. For, it is an elementary fact of physics that a substance loses its magnetism when heated! Since astronomers have definitely recorded magnetic effects upon the Sun, we have a direct conflict between the Sun's true nature and the suggested temperature. This conflict only indicates that the Sun is NOT the super-heated mass of gases that scientists think it is, but rather, a relatively cool body as the great astronomer Herschel said it was.
Well, if heated substances lose magnetism, the sun certainly cannot be holding the planets in orbit. Ulysses travelled near the sun and recorded its temperature and proved it to be high.

But the sun's internal temperature is just supposed to be in the millions. Maybe there are cool magnetic substances in there, and that may be holding planets in orbit and the temperature recorded is the surface temperature and not the internal temperature. But a question arises? Why isn't the inside getting heated?

Maybe there is another body holding the planets in orbit. But why has it not been discovered? Guess this is one question without an answer.
